I introduced this for ir_dead_code to distinguish function parameter outvals from varying outputs. Only, since ast_to_hir's current_function is unset when setting up function parameters (they're needed for making the function signature in the first place), all function parameter outvals were marked as shader outputs anyway. This meant that an inlined function's cloned outval was marked as a shader output and couldn't be dead-code eliminated. Instead, since ir_dead_code doesn't even look at function parameters, just use var->mode. The longest Mesa IR coming out of ir_to_mesa for Yo Frankie drops from 725 instructions to 636.
WindML Driver for Mesa 4.0
Requirements
------------
Tornado 2 + WindML, Cumulative Patchs are recommended.
I suppose you have a valid WindML installation. Double buffer hardware
gives better performance than double buffer software so if you can
compile your WindML driver with this option, just do it. I/O
redirection is adviced in target server.
Tested on
---------
During the development, my main target was a CoolMonster:
- Video card: CT69000
- CPU: PENTIUM 266MHz
and my host a Windows NT + Tornado 2.
Installation
------------
1. Mesa sources must be in root directory (C:\)
2. Add the following line to your torVars.bat:
set MESA_BASE=C:\Mesa
OR copy the new torVars.bat in your bin path:
c:/Mesa/src/ugl/tornado/torVars.sample ->
/mnt/nt/Tornado/host/x86-win32/bin/torVars (for example)
3. In a command prompt:
$ torVars
$ cd c:\Mesa
$ make -f Makefile.ugl CPU=PENTIUM
Take a long while...
5. Include all the files from ugldemos folder to build some downloadable
application modules
4. Download UGL/Mesa object files on target
For example via the WindShell:
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaGL.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaUGL.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaGLU.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objGLUTshapes.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaOS.o
You can put the previous lines in a file and use:
< filename
6. Download the application modules.
7. In WindShell, run:
-> uglalldemos
During the show some messages will appear, it provides some useful
information on key management.
Coding
------
Sample Usage:
In addition to the usual ugl calls to initialize UGL, (may be find an
input driver), you must do the following to use the UGL/Mesa interface:
1. Call uglMesaCreateContext() to create a UGL/Mesa rendering context,
given the display format.
2. Call uglMesaMakeCurrent() to bind the UGL/Mesa buffers to an
UGL/Mesa Context and to make the context the current one.
3. Make gl* calls to render your graphics.
4. Use uglMesaSwapBuffers() when double buffering to swap front/back buffers.
5. Before the UGL is destroyed, call MesaDestroyContext().
6. Before exiting, call if required uglEventQDestroy and then
uglDeinitialize();
Limitations
-----------
I found the following limitations in my driver :
- Color Indexed management is only in 8 bits
- It's possible to mix UGL/OpenGL application with a software
double buffer
